Lawson on no longer tying F1 ambitions to Red Bull

Liam Lawson says his aim of fighting at the front in Formula 1 is no longer tied to getting back to Red Bull, after he was promoted to the team for 2025 and then sent back to Racing Bulls after two rounds. Lawson said: "But I think now, honestly, it's not specific. Like everybody else, I'm working towards being at the front and winning in Formula 1, and where that is, I have no idea. And I'm not too fussed about it, but that's what I'm working towards."

Lord on Mercedes not prioritising Antonelli in 2026 title fight

Mercedes deputy team principal Bradley Lord says it is “far too early” for the team to prioritise either Kimi Antonelli in the 2026 Formula 1 title fight, insisting Mercedes will focus on the constructors’ championship and let the quickest car win. Lord said: "If a Mercedes can win the race, a Mercedes must win the race. That's what comes first, the team comes first and the constructors' championship is the team's primary focus and primary objective... It's far too early to even be thinking like that... core principle: if a Mercedes can win, a Mercedes must win. We don't mind which of the two cars it is."

Szafnauer on signalling when he was miked for Netflix

Former Formula 1 team principal Otmar Szafnauer says he used to put tape on his forehead with the word “Netflix” on it so staff would know he was wearing a microphone for Drive to Survive filming. Szafnauer said: "I'll tell you what I used to do whenever I was miked up and on the pitwall. You could say all sorts of stuff because emotions were quite high and they recorded everything. I used to put a piece of tape across my forehead that said 'Netflix'. So whenever anyone was talking to me, they could see I was miked up."
